Overturned Tower

After that, Russell felt that the relationship between Strangler and himself was much closer.

Russell and Strangler made an appointment to continue exploring together in the dream world tonight.

Immediately, they left the basement - one of the reasons was that Russell's transformation time was already halfway through, and he had to find a place to reset his transformation.

"--Wait a moment."

Before they returned to the hall through the small door and were still walking on the stairs, Strangler suddenly pressed Russell's shoulders.

The lion narrowed his eyes slightly, and his temperament gradually became dangerous: "Something happened."

"do you need my help?"

"This is my place."

The lion glanced at Russell: "You stay here first."

Then, his whole body turned into a crimson flame, flying out——

Russell leaned over and looked at what was happening outside.

A group of menacing-looking people blocked the door.

The "guests" did not leave, but gathered on the other side to confront the group.

Their numbers were overwhelming, but they still looked serious.

the reason is simple. Because everyone in the group of troublemakers has undergone a fairly high degree of prosthetic transformation.

"...It's them."

Russell murmured softly.

He immediately recognized the identity of the group... Veil of Ignorance.

The richest underground organization in downtown.

They were the ones who controlled Xiao Liuli and sent "security personnel" to infiltrate Tian'en Daily.

Through this method of recruitment and training, they gradually transferred the force from the lower city area to the upper city area.

If it hadn't been for the Xiao Liuli incident, I'm afraid they would have continued to station troops like this.

Russell continued to listen for a while and realized that they seemed to be causing trouble for the Paradise Birds...

The two gangsters Russell and Paradise Bird killed before were their people.

"Boss Strangler," the woman who took the lead said in a sharp voice, "This person shouldn't be one of yours, right?

"We avenge the dead alliance members. This is what you allowed, right?"

"That's because I saved him, but they wanted to snatch my medicine..."

Paradise Bird tried to argue.

"Isn't that so?"

The woman was fierce and spoke very fast: "If you saved him, why did he come back to steal your medicine? Or, was it really your medicine?

"How can you prove that you didn't steal their medicine and kill them?"

"Because I'm a doctor myself!"

The Bird of Paradise's voice became louder, but its momentum was still weak in front of the woman.

"How old are you?"

The woman said disdainfully: "You are only fourteen or fifteen years old, can you be a better editor?

"If nothing else, you don't have weapons on you. Our two young men all have weapons on them... If you hadn't attacked them first, how could you be so intact?"

"I……"

The bird in paradise was furious, but could not speak.

Until now, she had not revealed the hairdresser who was both a "witness" and another "perpetrator".

But precisely because of this, the loopholes in her words cannot be explained.

The leading woman saw that the Birds of Paradise were unable to tell the difference, so she showed a proud smile and said politely to the strangler on the side: "Boss strangler, you saw it too. She has nothing to argue with.

"Why don't we give you some face? We promise that if after the investigation is completed, this matter really has nothing to do with her...or she is indeed a pharmacist...how about we won't trouble her..."

Strangler glanced at the Paradise Bird, then at the woman who was taking the lead.

Suddenly he laughed.

"'Lover,' put away your little tricks. You just took a fancy to this little pigeon's talent as a doctor, and you wanted to find a reason to take her away by force.

"But these days, who doesn't lack good doctors?"

"Are you saying this...are you trying to steal people from us?"

The woman called "Lover" quickly said: "We are here with a mission, not specifically to capture her - are you sure you don't want to listen to what our boss wants to do?"

"I want to listen to what you say, and I want to protect the people."

Hangsha said leisurely: "Don't show those dirty claws in front of me..."

As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand toward the void beside him.

As his five thick-knuckled fingers suddenly tightened, an invisible figure approached to strangle...or rather, the person approaching the Paradise Bird beside him was grabbed by his neck and pulled out of the void alive.

Crimson flames ignited from his palm - it was clear that the opponent had undergone more than 70% transformation and had basically become an iron lump. But he was still instantly ignited by the blood-colored flames, making a shrill wail and struggling violently.

The blood fire was wrapped in the hot wind and swept through violently, forcing the surrounding crowd to take a step back.

In just four or five seconds, when the blood and fire dissipated... the man, his prosthetic body, clothing, and the few remaining parts of his body were roasted into a charred mass that exuded a pungent odor.

The strangulation method only required a little force with the palm of the hand to crush the part of the person's neck that was originally there. And the "head" fell to the ground and shattered.

Seeing this horrific scene, the woman known as "Lover" only turned slightly pale, but did not retreat.

She just stressed: "We abide by the laws of revenge you set - she killed our people, and we will hold her accountable.

"Excuse me, Boss Strangler, what's the problem if we do this? In front of so many people, can you tell us the cause and effect?"

Russell heard this and reacted.

His initial feeling was correct. There was indeed something wrong with Strangler's control of his own court.

Strangler did not tell everyone the secret order of "The Furnace". When Russell said the word, only "Xingsang" reacted.

And when he gave the instructions after the strangulation, he only told her to remember the faces of "the barber and the bird of paradise"... Of course there is also a reason for the good memory of joy and death, and another reason must be that the control of the strangulation is actually not Not that high.

He must maintain a reign of terror, using intimidation to increase his control over the White Lions.

And this means that he actually does not have core competitiveness in the field of "underground gangs"... But the positioning of the White Lion Group is clearly biased towards "trial". With this advantage, today's Uncoded People still The "White Lion Group" will not be considered as the "first choice".

This means that other organizations, led by "Veil of Ignorance", have more core competitiveness.

...For example, if you have money.

With people's hearts fluctuating, there are not many people who can be completely trusted by Hangzhou. Otherwise, this woman who doesn't look stupid would not dare to ask this question.

It's because... if Hangsha attacks her at this time, it will prove his weakness and the deterioration of the White Lion Group.

And she seems to be just a middle-level leader.

The fact that she dared to say this directly in public proved that this was no longer a secret.

Then it's my turn, Russell thought.

"——It's simple."

A calm and gentle voice sounded from the small door: "Because we are the ones taking revenge."

A young man with a long dark blue ponytail walked out slowly.

He stretched out his slender right index finger and twirled the pistol seized from the man.

The barber walked up to his "lover" minding his own business, the warm smile on his face never disappearing: "I was attacked by your people, and then I killed one. Then I asked the paradise bird to hold this gun and kill the other. Kill one...what's the problem?"

"……and who are you?"

The lover frowned.

She vaguely realized that this person was difficult to deal with.

"The second in command of the White Lion Group. 'Barber', my brother."

The one who spoke was Strangler.

He crossed his arms and said calmly: "Many of the strategies of the White Lion Group have been formulated secretly by the barber. Now, I have decided to invite him to the table.

"In other words, Veil of Ignorance - you tried to attack the top leaders of the White Lion Group. And now you dare to continue to cause trouble?"

The white-maned lion's dark golden pupils were filled with anger that seemed to melt everything.

"No, strangulation. It doesn't have to be so troublesome."

The barber smiled gently and gently discouraged strangulation.

And to everyone's expectation...Strangler actually listened to the barber's wisdom and calmed down.

This actually made people begin to believe that this blue-haired young man was really the strategist of the White Lion Group.

The barber stretched out his white left hand towards his lover and bowed slightly, as if a gentleman wanted to shake hands with her and make peace.

"I believe you didn't do it on purpose, right?"

The barber's smile was gentle and his eyes were as calm as water.

The lovers also realized that the situation had become troublesome. She hesitantly stretched out her left hand and held it with Russell: "Yes, we..."

She was just halfway through her words when severe fear and pain suddenly appeared in her eyes.

She let out a miserable scream, but the thugs behind her did not dare to raise their weapons against the barber!

Because, I saw that the hand that shook hands with the barber before was ignited with blood-red flames without warning——

The blood fire is exactly the same as "Strangulation", a magical fire that can instantly burn out the highly prosthetic-modified thugs!

That was different from the flame that burned the man instantly. This flame ate away at the "lover's" hand very slowly.

"Hurry up and cut off your own arm."

The gentle smile on the barber's face still did not fade away. He said with a smile: "This is a reward."

The "lover"'s head was covered with cold sweat, he could only scream and could no longer think.

At this moment, one of the "highly modified people" behind her suddenly pulled out a light blade and chopped off her lover's left arm at shoulder level.

——That's psychic weaponry.

Although the flames only burned a third of her forearm, her entire arm was cut off.

Then, he took out the spray and sprayed it three times on his lover's left arm. The bleeding soon stopped.

"I apologize to you, Your Excellency."

The distinctive synthesizer didn't even open his mouth before he heard a mechanical synthesized voice: "We don't mean to offend.

"My lover, make an apology to Mr. Barber."

He turned to his "lover" and ordered: "Thank you sir for sparing your life."

"...thank you...thank you..."

The "lover"'s head was covered in fine sweat from being burned and having his arms cut off.

She actually realized something the moment she saw the flames, but she didn't dare to say it here.

She could only bend down and stammered, almost humblely: "The day after tomorrow...at nine o'clock in the morning, we are going to hold a comprehensive meeting on how to distribute a wave of precious treatment chips. Only the 'White Lion Group' and others Only leaders of specific organizations who have received invitations can go..."

As she spoke, she was respectful to the barber and said in a lower voice: "Of course, you can do it too.

"The leaders can bring some people with them. After the meeting, the chips must be moved directly...the location is here."

She took out a paper invitation and subconsciously wanted to hand it to Strangler, but when she saw the barber, her hand suddenly froze and hung in the air, not knowing who to give it to.

"Let's hang him."

The barber touched her hair and said gently: "They are all the same."

The lover trembled when the hairdresser's hand touched her hair, but she still suppressed the trembling and handed the invitation to Strangler with one arm.

Afterwards, they almost fled away.

The barber raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Although it was "distributing chips" on the surface, he could easily guess the nature of the meeting the day after tomorrow.

——This is the first "offline gathering" of the new generation of mages. That's why only the "leader of a specific organization" could come, but he was able to come.

Those people should know that the mage exists, so they are so humble to the barber.

The barber glanced back at the Bird of Paradise.

She didn't look up because of fear, so she didn't make eye contact with the barber.

...I have enough news for you, little angel.

Remember that the starting point will be effective in two days, so ask a big brother to come over.

Russell thought to himself.
